Never stand behind a jet engine because you don’t want to turn into this Tickle Me Elmo doll. Its skin gets ripped off from the sheer force and power of the engine and then once its guts are exposed, the torch does its duty in burning the rest. Poor little Elmo doll, that’s what you get for laughing so much.

It’s hard to argue that the Isetta, an extremely tiny front-loading car built by companies like BMW decades ago, isn’t one of the cutest vehicles to ever hit the road. And it’s all but impossible to argue that Elmo isn’t the most adorable muppet to ever wander down Sesame Street. So why has it taken so long for the…

We took a trip to Hasbro's toy factory, which you can read about here, but there the most indelible image we came away with was this animatronic Elmo, without his plush skin, laughing us into a shallow grave.

You might want to avert your eyes if the thought of any harm coming to the beloved Muppet and claymation characters of childhood. Redditor Wizzer2801 posted these "horribly cute" creations his wife has been stitching up, and promises there's a store in the works. I hope they get it online soon, because my floor could…

The brand new 42nd season of Sesame Street will be brought to you by STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math)! This year, the word on the Street is all about Math and Science. Which means Elmo singing about the number 10 with Elvis Costello, science experiments, and learning about engineering by launching a…

Kevin Clash. You might not know who he is but every kid in America will recognize his work. He's Elmo. Like the Elmo. Being Elmo is a documentary that takes a heartfelt look at Clash, Elmo, a lifelong dream and more. Watch the trailer, it looks ah-mazing.

This is the REAL Elmo, mind you. For your consideration, comedian Craig Ferguson and Elmo explain the word "Experiment" and act it out to terribly cute effect. Because this JUST the way you start your day. Good morning, scientific method! [The Mary Sue]

Joel on BBG naturally went to the same place we went first—self pleasure. Upon further inspection, it's a little too creepy for that, unless you really, really enjoy Elmo's voice. [Non Toxic Reviews via Boing Boing Gadgets]

Everyone wants love, companionship and contact. Those who can't get it from humans can turn to the latest crop of hot toy robots: Wall-E in three sizes, WowWee's Rovio, Femisapien and Mr. Personality, the dino D-Rex, multi-talented Elmo Live and Sony's enchantingly personable Rolly music player.

Yesterday marked the arrival of Elmo Live, the rapping, dancing and storytelling animatronic doll that'll be burning up retail this holiday season, Great Depression or not. We got one of the little guys, and thoroughly evaluated his MC skills, jokes and hugging ability. He's a fun little dude, at least for a short…

It doesn't ship until October 14th, but you should get one before they are impossible to find and your kids hate you forever.

This 2-year-old boy loves his Elmo, but the feeling isn't mutual. After replacing the batteries of his PC-syncing Elmo Knows Your Name toy, it awoke with a new vocabulary: the phrase, "Kill James?" So what was the child's reaction? He repeats it, getting an enviable early start on his life of self-loathing awaiting…

Holy crap, I want this Elmo, and I don't even like Sesame Street. It makes Pleo look like a dumb hunk of plastic. The ways it moves and interacts is incredible—it tells stories, sings songs, dances and is simply the most expressive toy we've ever seen. It even yells out "Jazz Hands!" when he finish performing his…

If the ElmoTMX sextape wasn't Xtreme enough for you, how about Elmo...on fire? Elmo's creepy enough with his robotic dancing and laughing, but on fire, he's just a singed nosehair away from haunting our dreams for years.

With Guitar Hero II in stores today—the faithful have called in sick and are already shredding, no doubt—we found a man who clearly puts the Hero in Guitar Hero. Mike Smith spent a series of nights transforming his 2 year old's Tickle Me Elmo guitar into a fully functioning Guitar Hero controller. This was no simple…

That son of a gun Elmo is supposed to stand up on his own, but he appears to be a little intoxicated in the above video, so check out the clip after the jump of him standing up on his own after ROFL'ing (Literally! Lollercopter!).
